tHCollccl himself, the difficulty would return.
These practices, It ia believed, brought on the
disease which terminated hia life, and he died
at last of a pulmonary a flection."
UntH two weeks before his death hit disease
tad not assumed a formidable type, but then he
b !an to sink rapidly. Up to this period he had
KT.-adily and vehemently asserted hie innocence
t' the crimes imputed to him, but so soon as he
hf came convinced that hit recovery wis im
possible, he confessed his gtiilt, end,' although
We are restrained by prudential considerations,
train ftrther allusion to this point, we may ven

It is known that Braddee's wife, who clung to
h'tn during his trial, and Supgentrd by her pre
sence and sign's of affliction, that beautiful apos
trophe to love in anguish, with which Mr. Bid-.
He in Braddee defence, electrified the crowd
ed auditory, had been unfaithful to her vows, and
married another during Braddee's inipri-sonment.
If was not made acquainted with the fact, arid,
tr t lte tivo years ho was in confinement, he was
fimd of an opportunity of talking about his 'wife
and children;' He epoke of them in terms or
worm Bilection, and undoubtedly his desire ; to
recover his liberty was stimulated by attach
ment to them ; even after he became aware
that lie must soon die, he desired to be at liber
ty, even if it were to die in a barn, to the end,
I'.at ho might not die a prisoner. But so soon
he learned the conduct of bis wife, be instant
ly ceased to wish for freedom.- It wss the final
blow to the poor convict ; the unexpected thrust,
hke that which extorted the 'memorable tt tu
Drvle, commanding surrender ; and, poor rei
ki', he gave 'up at once. He never after men
tiuned wife or child, or desired to move beyond
the limits of his cell. The name of his wire was
avoided with an iron will, although for the pre
vious years of his confinement, it had beea a
pleasant and hopeful theme. ' ; . ,
. A question was a long time existing whether
Ursddee could read or write. In his last illness
it wax satisfactorily ascertained that he could do
neither, although every effort in the early part
of his imprisonment to determine the question
was unsuccessful.
- Braddee died a penitent, it ia believed. If he
was a very great villain, he seems to have had,
nevertheless, room in his heart for some afiec
tmnate impulses; and we cannot record his fi
delity to his wife without feeling a regret that
she proved unfaithful." . J, j
Fall or Worms. We find in the last Con-
preiitioiiul Journal, Concord, N. II., the follow
ing' singular and wonderful account of what ap
pears to have been a shower of small worms in
connection with a full of snow. The Rev. I. S.
D.vis, the narrator, is the brother of the late
Mayor ot Boston, and a man of the most exem
plary character and unquestionable veracity.
His statement is as follows :
' "As I was returning from Pierpont on Mon
day, the 1st ot Dec-, I saw on the snow which
had fallen during the night, that I aupposed to
bo oats, spread broad-cast; but not seeing any
track in the snow, for I was the first that tra
velled the road after the snow fell, my curiosity
led me to descend from my carriage and exam
ire ; when, to my great surprise, I found that
the objects I saw were living uormt, about an
inch long, lying on the top of the snow by hun
dreds ; and these were scattered along the road
I travelled for a distance of not less than five
miles. I would say farther, that there were no
trees near from which the worms might have
been shaken, and if there had been, and the
worms had been on them, they would all have
been frozen, for it had been very cold, and the
ground was frozen hard before the snow (ell.
The worms were ulive, for they immediately
coiled up when I took them in my hand. .Tliey
were of a brown color with about 12 or 16
lege." ' ; '

Msttv witji Justice. A Mr. Sterling, who
ws minister of lbs barony church of Glasgow,
during the war with this and other countries,
oianiained against tbe insatiable ambition of Lou

Slid ingenious method of nuniahinv amhition.

WATSvitt,Dneidseo.. N, Y.Sept. IS, 1643.
Dear Sir I owe it lo the afflicted to inform vu
that in Junuary last I was attacked by a very vio
lent cold, caused by woikiug in ihe water, which
settled on my lungs. It was accompanied by a ve
ry aevere pain in my breast snd sides, and also a
distiesing cough. I had in attendance all the lst
medical aid in eur village ; but after exhaunting all
their skill to no avail, ihey pronounced my dieae a
coMriRMSn consoMPTios, and they one and all
gave me up to ilie. After much persuasion 1 got
the consent of my physician to ush the Balsam or
Who Crfrrv prepared by Da. Wia-raa. I pur
chased of the Agent in our pl-.ee one botlle, before
using half of which I began to gain strength, and it
was very evident my cough wss ouch better and
my symptoms in every By improving. I have
now used three bottles, and cm rettored to perfttt
health.' This reult is abne owing to the ne of
DR. WISTAR'8 BALSAM OF WILD CHER.
RY ; and I take this method of giving you the in
formation, partly to pay you the debt of gratitude
I owe you, and partly that othera similarly afflicted
ma) know where lo apply for relief.'
Very trulv yours, JAMES SAGE.

taken with a violent pain in ihe aide near the liver,
which continued for about five daya, and was fol

me to throw ops great quantity of offensive mattei
and also much blood. Being greatly alarmed at
this. I applied to a phy aician, but he said be thought
he could do but liltle for me exept give rnn some
Mercury Pill, which I refused to take, feeling
satisfied that they could do bis no good many o

friends, but none did me any good and the die.

few days, end at last become ao offtnaive that I
could scarcely breathe. I wis also asiaed with a vi.

disease continued in this way. still growing worse.

Ms. Oaklxt : I believe it the uty of every

fit of their fellow man, and having had pnsiiive
proof in my own family, of the wonderful properties
of your Depurativa Syrup of Satsaparilla, I m 'at
conscientiously recommend it lo the afflicted. We
had the misfortune to lose two of our children, by
the breaking out of ulcerous aores that covered the
face, head and neck, although we had some of the
most scientific physician to attend th. m and had
tried all the known temedies, including Swaim's
Panacea, without avail. Another of my children
waa attacked in the same manner, ber face and
neck waa completely covered; the discharge was so
offensive, and tbe diseaae at such a height, that we
despaired of ber life. Seeing the wonderful effects
of your Depurativa Syrup of Sarsaparilla, we were
induced to make trial of it, aa the last rea.irl; it
acted like a charm; the ulcers commenced healing
immediately, a f w bottles entirely restored her to

ever since. ' As a purifier of the blood, I verily be

TOB twenty years I was severely afflicted with
A ' TttTSR on the Face and Head:, the disesae
commenced when ;1 was seventeen yeam old, and
continued onlil 'the Fell of 1838, varying ia vio
lence, but. without ever disappearing, r Daring most
of the time, great part of my face was covered with
the eruption, frequently attended with violent itch
ing ; tny head swelled at time until it felt as if It
would burst theewellin; wss so g'eat, that I could
scarcely get my hat on. - During Ihe long period
that 1 was afflicted with the disease, I used a great
msny aj plications (among them aeveral celebrated
(.reparation) as Wi ll a taking" inward remedies,
including a number of hottlea of Sioaim't Panaeen,
Extract of Sarmparilla, Ac, , In fact, it would Ire
impossible to enumoiste all ths medicines I used.
1 was also under the Care of two of the most dis
tinguished physicians of this city, but without re
ceiving much benefit, snd I despaired of ever being
cured. In the fall pf lS.lfl, the disease st the time
being very violent, I commenced using the Rote
Ointment, (prepared by Vsughan St Davis.) In
a f.-W applications the violent itching ceased, the
swelling abated, the eruption began to disappear;
and beore I had used a jnr the dixease was entirely
cured. It has now been nearly a year and a half
since, and there ia not a vestige of Ihe disease re
maining, except the scars from ths deep pits formed
by the disense. It is impossible for me to describe
in s certificate the severity of the disease and my
suffering, but I will be pleased to give s fuller ac
connt to any peraon wanting further aatiafactinn,
who will call on me. At the time I commenced
using the Rose Ointment I would have given hun
dred of dollars to be rid of the diseaae. Since u
sing it, I have recommended it to several persons,
(among them my mother, who had the diaeaee bad
If on her aim.) who w.-re all cured bv it,
